141. How Vast, How Full, How Free

S.M.
1
How vast, how full, how free,
 
The mercy of our God!
 
Proclaim the blessed news around,
 
And spread it all abroad.
2
How vast! "Whoever will"
 
May drink at mercy’s stream,
 
And know that faith in Jesus brings
 
Salvation e’en for him.
3
How full! It doth remove
 
The stain of every sin,
 
And leaves the soul as white and pure
 
As though no sin had been.
4
How free! It asks no price,
 
For God delights to give;
 
It only says — a simple thing — 
 
"Believe in Christ, and live."
5
Poor trembling sinner, "Come,"
 
God waits to comfort thee;
 
Oh, cast thyself upon His love,
 
So vast, so full, so free!
